So looking fwd to this show. Bob Odenkirk was awesome in the Fargo TV show. The first time he appeared I thought "Saul Goodman". Then he disappeared in the Fargo sheriff character.
This should be interesting they have been talking about this spin off since breaking bad ended. Interested to see if it will be gritty like breaking bad or it's own thing.
I always thought a good spin off also could be Jesse Pinkman before he meets up with Walter White or even when Walt is his teacher and he starts screwing up and getting hooked on meth. I think it's a good idea I better write the makers of the show.

I'd rather see a Gus prequel. There's so many mysteries with him. He was seemingly some kind of big deal in Chile but they never elaborated. That would been interesting to see.
That would really interesting I better go delete my suggestion. Gus was one of my favorite characters in the show.
I'm happy they're making Better Call Saul but I woulda preferred a Gus show. I doubt it'll happen cuz I don't think they'll make two spinoffs from one show but it woulda been great. Remember when Hector killed Gus's partner? And Don Eladio said he spared Gus cuz he knew he was? What did that mean? What was his history in Chile? Was he from an important family? Was he some kind of war criminal/hero? Gus was a cold blooded killer. Scary and brilliant. Where did that come from? And his meth empire had this whole big history to it. He funded his partners education in chemistry so he could cook meth. Then he apparently put Gale through school for the same thing. Did Gus really have a family like he implied? What did he do all day when he wasn't looking at cctv footage in his office? What did he do with his money? Better Call Saul will be good, but I doubt it'll be a masterpiece like Breaking Bad. A Gus show with Vince Gilligan as directly involved as he was with breaking bad could've been amazing.
